LMS reporting on a final assessment
Hello Community
Looking for some help on an assessment I built in Storyline.
Is there a way to prevent the course from passing completion until the assessment is actually over? I have a course with 50 questions and they need to pass with an 80%. When testing, I exited after answering first question or two and it completed (LMS = Successful. Completed. See attached).
On failure they have the opportunity to retry. On Pass they can review the quiz.
If I add a completion trigger to the pass slide layer it reports correctly in the LMS but, we don't get the quiz information needed when running reports.
I'm using a results slide (see attached)
Tacking
Final Assessment - When the learner completes a quiz
LMS SCORM 1.2 - Reporting - Passed/Incomplete
This is the only way I'm passing completion. I don't have any triggers on any other slides.
Quiz settings
Calculate results for questions
All questions are checked
Passing score is 80%
Only score viewed questions is unchecked
We are using Cornerstone as our LMS
LMS = Successful. Completed. (see attached)
View Results - Score Card Status = Failed (see attached)
SCORM Cloud is blocked by our company so I'm unable to use it to test.
Thank you!

Hi GeorgePrice-3fd this doesn't correspond with SCORM Cloud behaviour. Whilst the SCORE is written to the LMS as the user answers the questions, the result of the quiz is not written to the LMS until the results page is reach. If I have a quiz with two questions, and a mastery score of 50%, even if I answer the first question correctly, achieving a score of 50%, the LMS completion is not updated at this stage. When I exit, the completion status is still "incomplete". It is only when I reach the Results slide that the completion is updated to "passed".
What it sounds like is happening with your content is that the LMS is taking control of the Passed/Failed status using the mastery score that is provided during import of the SCORM package. That means, when a SCORE is written to the LMS, the LMS evaluates the SCORE against the mastery score and determines Pass/Fail automatically, which is overriding the control controlled completion tracking.
One thing you can do, to stop this happening is to remove the line of XML in the imsmanifest.xml document that included the mastery score. It looks like this:
<adlcp:masteryscore>80</adlcp:masteryscore>
If you remove that, it means the LMS does not have the mastery score and therefore cannot make decisions on completion when a SCORE is sent to the LMS.
What I would also check on CoD is that there isn't a configuration option when you upload the content to determine if the completion is "content controlled" or "lms controlled using mastery score". Something along those lines anyway.
UPDATE
I'm not sure how accurate this ChatGPT answer is, but something worth checking:
Where to Configure This in CSOD
When you upload SCORM content via Admin > Content Uploader or SCORM 1.2 Engine, look for advanced settings during or after the import, under Training Details or SCORM Settings:You may see checkboxes or dropdowns such as:
- "Use Mastery Score to Determine Completion"
- "Content Determines Completion" <- This is the option you want
- Or specific settings for status and score mapping.
